Oompa Loompas Viciously Attack UK Man

Oompa Loompas, the lovable orange-skinned creatures from 'Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory,' may look harmless. But as a 28-year-old man in Norfolk, England, learned, they're not above aggravated assault.

As the man exited a kebab shop in Norfolk's city center last week, he encountered four people, two of whom sported orange faces and dyed green hair like the characters from Roald Dahl's classic children's book.

But these Oompa Loompas didn't come bearing candy. Instead, they viciously attacked the man over and over, giving him two blacks eyes and various cuts to his face.

"One of the males in the group then pushed the victim to the floor before he got up," said a spokesman for the Norfolk Constabulary. "He was then hit on the head, fell to the floor and hit again."

Police are reportedly now searching for the tiny perpetrators. If they're smart, they'll check by the chocolate river.
